We're actually working on that, and have made progress with Brave and Opera. You're right that for wide, mainstream adoption, we'll need to expand onto platforms like Android/iOS, and that's the dream, honestly. Working on URIs like IPFS:// and IPNS://, which are supported in Brave/Opera to an extent.

It's a long road though, with lots of negotiations with lots of organizations. I do feel optimistic about it though.

Maybe I’m making it too simple but Native iOS, Android and desktop clients be a good start? Even a good desktop client could drive the adoption like crazy. Torrents never required any negotiations, it never depended on organisations to implement support. Just package it enough as a standalone app. Ipns can follow. If enough people are storing/accessing content in IPFS, organisations all implement interfaces on their own.
